A patchy widespread cloud band stretches across the Great Australian Bight
brushing southern coastal parts of WA and SA, before extending over VIC and
Tasmania. Embedded thunderstorms area occurring within this cloud band over
southwest VIC. The cloud is associated with a broad cold front to the northeast
of Tasmania and surface trough that extends through southern parts of the
continent.
In the north low level cloud can be seen over the eastern Cape York Peninsula
and Arnhem coast due to onshore flow in these areas.
The remainder of the continent is mostly clear under the influence of a high
pressure ridge.
